Why do deserts have below 0 degrees temperature at night?
Deserts can get very cold at night because the rocks and sand radiate heat out through the atmosphere into space (no cloud cover to reflect the infrared (heat) wavelengths back to Earth. There is very little water which is one of the greatest heat sinks (retains heat).
Does knology have free movies on demand?
what type of heater can be used to heat a storage room 40x20 that paint and cleaner are stored in
Why does the heater blower switch get hot?
As heater motors age, they tend to draw more amps than they should. Yours is probably drawing too much amperage causing the switch to heat up. Remedy is to replace the heater motor and possibly the switch as the terminals get hot and oxidize.
What job did a heater boy have to do on titanic?

Relationship between heater and a refrigerator?
A specific type of heater, called a heat pump, is used to move the heat (energy) in the air from one side of its container to the other. A refrigerator's compressor is an example of a heat pump - it transfers thermal energy from within the fridge (and freezer) outside of it (which is why the coils on the back of a running fridge are warm). The term heat pump is usually reserved for building heating systems. In this case, it's taking heat from outside (cooling it ever so slightly) and putting it inside (warming the inside). This process is usually reversible, in which case it's functionally an air conditioner. (I'm not sure if that's the same process as a dedicated air conditioner or not).
How does the Sunheat heater work?
The Sunheat Infrared heater is a portable heater in a wooden encasing. It has infrared heat tubes and copper. There is a fan which sucks the air from the room and pushes it into the heat chamber. The moisture in that air absorbs the infrared heat and it is pushed out into the room, warming the room.
How do infrared quartz heaters work?
The infrared quartz heaters have the infrared emitters and they emit infrared rays continuously to heat the heater in the instrument. The heat is generated and infrared emission stops.
Is there a heater that will also purify the air at the same time?
There is a heater called the EdenPURE Quartz Infrared Portable Heater that can heat your home and purify the air at the same time. It can heat up to 1000 sq feet of space at a given time. You can check out the company at www.edenpurestore.com.
If your home is already heated what can you use a ceramic infrared heater for?
If one's home is already heated, one can use a ceramic infrared heater for maintaining the heat. The ceramic infrared heater prevents the temperature of the room from dropping.
Is 1500 watts for electric heater a lot?
To put it into perspective a 1000 watt base board heater will heat a 10' x 10' = 100 sq ft room.
Why does the heater not blow air?
The heater does not blow air because it emits infrared rays that have heat molecules within them, thus releasing heat, not blowing it. A heater does not blow air becasue there is no moving air source within the heater. The heater emits infrered rays that cause heat to slowly flow out of the heater.
How long does it take to heat one liter of water from a heat source?
It depends on the how many degrees you wish to change the water and the wattage of the heater. Obviously a 1500 watt heater will do it faster than a 1000 watt heater. You might want to begin by looking at the heat transfer formula: heat in joules equals mass times change in temperature times specific heat of the material (water in this case).
How is infrared radiation used for?
Infrared is heat. When you feel the warmth of a space heater, you feel the effect of infrared radiation. The other uses are motion detection (infrared sensor) and night-vision (live animals have a heat signature, a blurred image, against a colder background at night). ======================
What types of objects emit of infrared raditation?
Any object emits infrared radiation. The hotter the object, the more infrared is emitted.
How many square feet does a 66000 BTU heater heat?
1500 sq ft
What type of fuel does an Edenpure heater use?
Edenpure does not use a flame or fuel heater. Edenpure uses a Quartz infrared zone furnace heater so that it may efficiently heat entire areas that require it.
Does a dodge ram 1500 van with rear heat have 2 heater cores?
